Some of Atami's tanks drove up the bridge again, heading east to meet the paratroopers who were still in the wrong place 8 kilometers away, leaving him with fewer tanks on the east coast. At present, he is stuck in a mess and has to disperse his forces, of course he knows that he should concentrate his forces, but it is a pity that Lin Xiuxuan set up a trap for him, so he can't get out of it. According to the continuous enemy situation in the rear, Zhou Youfu's troops will come one after another after dawn, and the bridge must be blown up before that point in time.

Flares were constantly falling from the sky, coming from different places on both sides of the strait, and Atami kept observing through the viewing glass. There is no doubt that it was a small force of the enemy hiding in the shadows watching themselves, hating that they could not annihilate them. Tank units are powerful, but when they lose infantry cover, visibility becomes bad, especially at night. He also had to be wary of the enemy's anti-aircraft artillery, he knew that the enemy was not a straggler, and at least one of the anti-aircraft artillery had knocked out his tank just now. As a countermeasure, he can only shoot flares from the observation window from time to time, and he must not expose himself to prevent the enemy from sneaking up.

Lin Xiuxuan got in touch with Hongxiang's troops, took over the command of the troops, and began to harass the enemy at the bridgehead. At the same time, two reconnaissance vehicles commanded by Xu Chong were ambushed on the east bank of the river, two positions far apart, waiting to ambush the enemy. He had been communicating with Lin Xiuxuan, knowing that the enemy was going to pass here, and he had to carry out the necessary delayed operation to prevent them from joining the paratroopers.

He himself crouched on the top of the hill, used night vision devices to observe the position of the enemy's convoy and his two tanks, and when the time was almost right, he fired flares to expose the enemy. Two of his hounds have been camouflaged and are not easily exposed. The enemy's tank swarms were different, and as flares fell, the long, fast-moving shadows of those tanks were easily observable.

Xu Chong assigned targets to the two reconnaissance vehicles through the radio, and he himself did not stay in the vehicles, but he could command better. Leaving the vehicle is first and foremost to use the night vision device with the crew on your back, and the other point is of course also important, staying in the vehicle will not be able to see the whole battlefield.

The first hound opened fire first, hitting the first tank. According to Xu Chong's deployment, after firing two shots in a row, the tank quickly retreated. Sure enough, the enemy formation was disrupted, the enemies collided together, and it took a long time to start searching for the target, at which point the flares landed, and the enemy commander was forced to fire the flares himself.

When all the enemy tank guns turned in the direction of the suspected enemy position, Xu Chongfa's second reconnaissance vehicle fired again, this time firing the fourth vehicle in the queue, because it was in the middle, which was prone to confusion.

Sure enough, the enemy's column was completely disorganized, and it can be found from the radio monitoring that the enemy has lost unified command (perhaps the commander was killed, or he may have been confused and unable to make judgments and orders for a while)

Hongxiang's troops finally collected a few bazookas and a mortar and began to attack the enemy.

Mortar shells are constantly falling in the enemy's tank group, and the enemy's tanks, like a frozen snake, can only move blindly after each shelling, completely blind and passive, and now they have gone from being omnipotent sneak attackers to dazed and helpless beaters, Atami cannot counteract at all, can only wait for dawn.

Taking advantage of the enemy's confusion, the bazooka team took advantage of the terrain to get close to the enemy and fired continuously from a distance of about 100 meters*. The enemy turned on the headlights and resisted with machine guns.

At daybreak, the enemy on the east bank finally withdrew, but did not receive paratroopers. The sound of artillery here guided the tired paratroopers closer, but for a while they could not arrive.

The troops on the west coast of Atami lost more than half of their lives in a state of constant piecemeal beating. The lost tanks were mainly pierced by bazookas, one was directly destroyed by mortars, and the remaining tanks were basically damaged or incomplete. However, the rising sun that Atami was looking forward to finally emerged from the horizon, and Hongxiang's troops decided to retreat. The next battle was handed over to Zhou Youfu's tank to complete.

The Japanese paratroopers on the west bank came with less than 300 people at this time. They airdropped a brigade of 800 people, and they hadn't fought much, and they had already lost more than half of them. However, the second batch of airdrop troops on both sides is already on the way, and the bridge is still under the control of the Japanese for the time being.

Xu Chong was on the commanding heights to monitor the arrival of the enemy paratroopers, the officers were no longer his priority target, he had to find those who carried * first. He shot several soldiers with backpacks in succession, trying to penetrate the backpacks with tracer bullets with each blow, eventually causing an explosion and the remaining paratroopers escaping across the bridge to join Atami, but still unable to solve the bridge.

After dawn, the P38 fighters of the 10th Air Force of the U.S. Army were the first to rush to the vicinity of the bridge, and they took off from the airfield in northern Myanmar to prevent Japanese planes from bombing the bridge. Sure enough, the scramble around the bridge escalated. Japanese light bombers, uncovered by fighters, arrived later, and a scuffle ensued between the two sides. The hovering ability of the Japanese light bomber after throwing away * was also stronger than that of the P38. The two sides went back and forth, fighting at low altitudes, and none of the Japanese bombs threatened the bridge.

At 7 a.m., three naval bombers flying across the South China Sea from the Brunei Naval Base flew towards the bridge in preparation for the launch of the remote-controlled*. The early Sakura*, which was an upgraded and obsolete weapon of the Japanese Navy, was now used to attack stationary targets. In order to intercept Zhou Youfu, the Japanese army and navy gave up their previous suspicions and launched a close collusion. Onishi Takijiro's deputy, who was at the southernmost base in Vietnam (just in the middle of the attack on Huang Tianyang), commanded the attack.

The bombers were just in time for the US fighters to run out of fuel and return home. This modified Sakura* based on the V1* is extremely powerful, in addition to a half-ton warhead and a large amount of gasoline fuel, it is good to attack fixed targets with steel structures. The Army had attacked MacArthur's bunkers in Australia with similar ammunition used by men, but rarely missed.

The bomber was attacked by anti-aircraft guns of Huang Tianyang's troops over the Jinou Peninsula and was forced to contact the ground, requesting a change in route, and after changing the route, he asked for guidance to relocate the tributaries of the Laos section of the Mekong River.

These radio communications allow the enemy's intentions to be exposed. Qin Xiaosu predicted that the enemy would have a low-altitude search along the river from south to north, which seemed to be a prelude to the use of * or suicide weapons. In Burma, Chu Tingchang used smoke to interfere with the enemy's man-operated ammunition impact, and he predicted that the enemy would use * this time, because the ground repeatedly asked the pilot to follow the steps to drop the bomb and pay attention to maintaining the altitude. Obviously, the bombing conditions are quite harsh, unlike ordinary people handling ammunition.

Xu Chong was on the nearby commanding heights, and according to Qin Xiaosu's guidance, he placed a small adaptive jamming device. Such equipment is too powerful to interfere with active radar-guided weapons, but it is easy to deceive commands from analog signals.

From a distance of 6 km, the enemy bomber dropped a round *, one of the low-end weapons that appeared in a blowout after Makino brought the technology he brought. *Uses VHF (90 cm) guidance commands. If the Japanese were using the more backward shortwave bands, Xu Chong's small* (which was actually his portable radio) would not be able to sweep and jam due to antenna length limitations.

Just when the operator behind the bomber's navigation module was hurriedly controlling the clumsy * flying towards the fuzzy target, Xu Chong's small power* completed a jamming in half a second. According to Qin Xiaosu's experience, the best way to deal with this kind of thing is to destroy its high degree of control. He knows that most of the time the altitude data is provided by his own altimeter, and the controller is in a high position, so it is difficult to observe its altitude, and can only judge the altitude based on the feedback audio signal (fast or slow dripping sound). *During the short implementation of the deception, a dive command was given to *, and a one-second window was enough to make * get out of control, even if it was later corrected, it would be too late.

Sure enough, the Japanese controller found that * was planting down, desperately turning the knob to control the pitch in his hand, but *'s elevator torque was too small, and he could only control it within 1.5 degrees per second, and * lost control and fell into the river.

Immediately after arriving were the enemy's No. 2 and No. 3 planes, who continued their attacks, and their attacks were almost identical, and they seemed determined to hit the cross-section of the bridge. But Xu Chong's interference was always effective, and each one* flew well at first, but suddenly fell into the same section of the river, crashing headlong and completely uncontrollable.

At the moment, Japanese gliders broke into the heads of Zhou Youfu's troops, who were approaching, the second group of Japanese paratroopers, who were thrown into the wrong place in the wrong way.

The new Mustang fighter of the 14th Air Force, which flew from Yunnan, arrived 10 minutes ago to fill the vacancy of the P38 of the 10th Air Force. They bumped into the Japanese paratroopers for the second airdrop. The fighters then engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy's escorted Hayabusa fighters, and the transport planes fled to a low altitude with the gliders in a panic, and when they decoupled, many gliders lost control, some crashed directly into the mountains, and some were forced to drift with the air currents to find a flat place.

Zhou Youfu's mechanized troops were rushing to seize the bridge, and when they saw the green Japanese planes spitting plaster flags, they swayed towards them, and most of the soldiers thought that the Japanese planes were going to strafe or drop bombs, but these planes were surprisingly slow, and it took half a day to arrive in front of them. The machine guns on various vehicles dodged the unpowered gliders together, and the whole battlefield was in chaos.

Japanese tanks began firing at the exposed Chinese convoy across the river, and Atami temporarily had the advantage of attacking the entire mixed convoy of tanks and half-tracks by name. But by this time, his troops had already lost more than half of their strength and could not use all their firepower.

Finally, after a lot of losses, a Sherman tank appeared on the opposite side of the bridge, and then slowly drove onto the bridge. This tank, with its frontal piled with spare track shoes, for a time attracted the attention of all Stewart tanks. Its frontal armor was hit by at least 15 high-speed* rounds at one time. The Japanese firepower was desperate to test the front armor of this tank, but this sluggish tank, as if it had woken up from a momentary dizziness, began to slowly turn the turret.
